Gateway Discovery Park opens

Gateway Discovery Park opens

The Gateway neighborhood turned out in the hundreds to celebrate the opening of Gateway Discovery Park on Saturday, August 4.

The park offers an inclusive play area for kids of all abilities (thanks to efforts led by Harper’s Playground), a large grassy lawn, a plaza for performances and other events, a splash pad for water play, a skateboard area, picnic and gathering spots, and innovative public art.

Prosper Portland provided $1.2 million for the park and plaza, supporting a collaboration with Portland Parks & Rec and the local community and business groups to achieve this long-awaited amenity for Gateway.
